Base TRD Hardware Setup Requirements
These items are required to run and test the Base TRD and the video demonstration:
• The ZC702 evaluation board with the XC7Z020 CLG484-1 part
• USB Type-A to USB Mini-B cable (for UART communications) and a Tera Term Pro (or
similar) terminal program [Ref 5]
• USB-UART drivers from Silicon Labs [Ref 6]
• AC power adapter (12 VDC)
• An HDMI cable (two cables if using the ZVIK and the user desires to use an external
video source for the demonstration)
• SD MMC flash card containing TRD binaries formatted with FAT32
Note:
The included SD MMC is pre-loaded with required binaries. The binaries are loaded into
the first partition of the SD MMC card and include:
-
BOOT.bin
-
image.ub
- autostart.sh
Note:
The default binary device tree configures the video-out resolution to 1080p.
Additionally, the binaries should be loaded at its root level. If the files are not loaded on the
SD card, copy the files from the
ready_to_test
directory to the SD card.
• USB Micro-B to female A adapter
• A USB hub is needed for connecting a keyboard and mouse (not included with the kit).
If a USB hub is not available, it is still possible to run the demonstration with only a USB
mouse, but the user will not be able use the frame buffer console terminal that will
come up once the user exits the demo.
• USB mouse and keyboard (optional—not included with the kit)
• An HDMI-compatible display monitor that supports full HD resolution: 1920 x 1080p
@ 60 Hz (not included with the kit). If the user wants to test at 720p video resolution,
the display monitor should support 720p resolution: 1280 x 720p @ 60 Hz. If an HDMI
monitor is not available, a DVI monitor can be used, but an HDMI to DVI-D
cable/connector adapter is required (not included with the kit). The connector adapter
can be easily obtained at most electronic retailers or through a variety of online
sources.
Instructions for running the demonstration at 720p are provided in Running the Video
Demonstration for 720p Video Resolution, page 38 .
Note:
The example mentioned in this package has been tested with a Dell model #P2412H
display monitor. However, the example should work well with any HDMI-compatible display
device.
